Midtown Multi Purpose
Space by Rowena
& Takashi
Rowena & Takashi, Inc. is launching
midtown Sacramento retail & salon space in early 2010. The new
facility features an Elixir Bar, retail/shopping, Davines Multi Space
Salon and Studio 99. The Elixir bar serves Elixir tonics; an
alternative high-vibration beverage and light snacks. The retail space features
Davines,
I NUOVI and other exclusive products
including, professional salon tools, accessories, apparel, self-help books
and international music. The salon provides individualized services
by departmentalized specialists. When we
established our first location in the El Dorado Hills business park, we committed to
assimilate and contribute to local culture. After 10 years in
business, we are moving forward to provide our celebrated services and
enjoyable employment opportunity in a well-designed environment.
